    when i was about ten my dad got me a scrap engine and we stripped it completely, every bit was examined and explained how it worked, its obvious really but without being shown initially id be scratching my head wondering why mechanics are charging so much.. now im looking forward to a break from work to spend a week under the landy(s).

    Is that an open invitation to be really picky then? The first sentence is written in 3rd person speech while the second sentence is written in 1st person if that makes sense? I daren't be too picky as mine is far from perfect, hope this helps and you get work from it.

  11. armchairarborist
    the heavy pruning shown in january, nice to see healthy regrowth
  12. armchairarborist
    found this laetiporus on an oak near where we have been working in sutton coldfield, the oak looks to have had recent heavy pruning.

    a decent garage big enough to build my own make of car from scratch to my spec.. oh and maybe a box of hydraulic couplings/ram/pipes for something im cooking up in my head..

    my reason was the money, there was nothing i could find wrong with it though.. there were defects but i wouldn't have recommended removal, the house is being converted for disabled use and the people dealing with it wanted it gone to extend house that direction, local council had granted a fell so i felled.. all arisings to local yard in the area.

    Hi phill, you taught me (Ed)and my bro (John) on rigging course at craven college, bought an ace kit bag from you at the time, still going strong but could do with another as the mice took a shine to it.. nice to see you on here.. Ed.

    been to southern parts today, everybody was carrying an umbrella - puffs
  21. armchairarborist
    wow thats a biggie, a woman fell through the pavement in my village years ago, similar thing, water leaking from a pipe washing soil away underground, much smaller scale obviously but wonder how many are out there waiting to collapse..
  22. armchairarborist
    makes sense, never saw a bore through, if thats the case then i agree with the opening words of the clip, inproper cuts may lead to death..
  23. armchairarborist
    ah the 'tail' drags on top of the cut stem, making it not fall straight down but carry forward a bit?
  24. armchairarborist
    am i right in thinking the gob was cut, then bored through to create hinge, then the last cut low for some reason i cant work out yet, they jump because the gobs have closed up..?
  25. armchairarborist
    i parked this one in my neighbours garden and they are most welcome to nest in it for a bit, havn't got time to play with it for a few months.. anyway whats wrong with nesting in a tree?
